After 2 failed attempts in 2007 on the normal route (twice we didn't leave our bivouac during bad weather) we opted for the North Ridge from the Mischabeljoch Bivouac the day after we climbed the Täschhorn. Short and enjoying route. Good conditions on the Eisnase during descent.

I started from Metro Alpin, using the early sunset ascent. Beautiful weather and very good conditions. Dry rocks on the Feekopf ridge and no ice on the Alphubel's nose. Way down on the normal route to Langflüe.

SE ridge is better one then east flank route however it could be more diffulcut if the part of the ridge between bands of rock is icy.after this climb steep snow/icy slope/two poles for belaying at the time of writing/ leading to the summit.east flank two big crevases then back to Alphubeljoch,be fast stone,ice fall.
